Storage: Organize GO! dies with AccuQuilt GO! Die Storage Rack (55115).
Care & Maintenance: Use adhesive roller to clean lint and thread from dies. After each use, with the die pick provided with the cutter, remove any threads imbedded between blades and foam. It's normal for threads to get caught where blades meet in a die. Remove with tweezers or die pick. Die blades never need to be sharpened.
Die Tips:
- With some fabrics, after cutting, a thread or two will remain where die blades meet. Snip threads with scissors.
- Use cutting mats that matches size of each die.
- For best results, cut with die blades running under roller at an angle. Do not cut with blades parallel to roller.
- Blades on some dies are positioned at an angle. Align fabric to edge of shape, not edge of die board.
- Some dies feature specially designed corners to aid in alignment and pre-cutting.
- For fast applique, apply fusible web to fabrics, then cut shapes with dies.
- Use good quality fabric to reduce fabric stretch.
- It's always a good idea to test cut one shape before cutting many shapes to ensure fabric orientation is correct.
Warranty: AccuQuilt GO! dies are guaranteed for one year.

Overall Rating This die makes it easy to cut lots of 2" strip pieces fast. I was able to cut dozens of perfect 7" & 10 1/2" length 2" strip pieces in about ten minutes by using the appropriate length fabric pieces--the die made sure they were the right width! It also makes it easy to cut lots of binding that fits perfectly in the Janome binding tool. I wasn't sure it was worth getting a die for something as straightforward as a strip, but I'm glad I got it. This is so much faster and easier on my hands that I'm considering getting a full size Go! so I can have more strip options.

Overall Rating This die makes cutting strips so easy. When using a ruler and rotary cutter it can be so easy to make mistakes. The strip cutter ensures accurate sized strips every time!

- Log cabin's here I come! Review by ginger

Overall Rating You can never go wrong with a log cabin quilt. Traditional colors, bright fabrics, and endless layouts. This die was designed to cut your full length piece of fabric into continuous strips by having open ends on the dies. You can cut enough fabric for an entire quilt in an hour! Strip piecing is a dream with these long accurate cuts. A couple strip dies make quilt projects very easy to finish.
